Another PyBlosxom plugin example

This plugin registers with the prepareChain and for each entry it adds a \$wc metadata variable. The wordcount is sort of an expensive process since it requires the data of the entry to be populated and we only populate that on-demand. Thus we need to populate the \$wc variable on-demand as well.

...

The effects of this is that I can add a \$wc variable to my story.html template file and you see a wc: thing on all of my entries.

This plugin and the entry that describes this plugin were written, tested, and documented in 15 minutes.

3/19/2003 - Moved code to here.
4/8/2003 - Updated plugin to new architecture.

Three things:

  1. New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
  2. I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
  3. Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.
